Editorial Review by Gregory Dal Piaz:

Rubber Band-aids, ash and banana make me think there is plenty of Pinotage in this. Round and yet bright on the palate, with lovely sour strawberry and light cherry fruit. A touch of eraser and soft tannin make this interesting and fun, though it is bound to not please some palates. It’s almost peppery on the back end before delivering plenty of cherry on the moderately long finish, along with some pithy notes of lime. 87pts
